"Mississippi State lost three of its last four games, but it wasn't as if Prescott played poorly down the stretch," Brown wrote. "However, repeating last season's success does present some challenges, as the line has to be rebuilt and tailback Josh Robinson left for the NFL." The draft expert ranks Prescott as the No. 5 signal-caller in the land. The 6-foot-2, 230-pound senior threw for 3,449 yards on 61 percent completions with a 27/11 TD/INT ratio last year.

Mississippi State redshirt senior QB Dak Prescott is a "bruising runner who was quietly quite efficient as a passer last season," writes ESPN's Mel Kiper.

"Prescott's challenge is to show enough growth as a passer to make the Tim Tebow comparisons go away," Kiper wrote. "Because while Tebow was a first-round pick, the comparison won't do much for Prescott's stock." The analyst ranks Prescott as the No. 5 senior quarterback prospect in the NCAA.

Mississippi State redshirt senior QB Dak Prescott "has plenty of arm strength to launch the ball around the field and from difficult throwing positions," observes NFL Media's Lance Zierlein.

The analyst believes Prescott could join Tim Tebow and Cam Newton as large dual-threat SEC quarterbacks who won the Heisman, a national championship and went in Round 1. "Prescott has been very productive with scrambles and designed runs, but we might see less of that this season as he prepares to transition to the NFL," he wrote. "Prescott needs to get through progressions more quickly and throw with better accuracy." Jun 23 - 1:30 AM

The National Football Post's Austin Morris writes that he doesn't think Mississippi State redshirt senior QB Dak Prescott will succeed in the NFL.

"Prescott reminds me way too much of Tim Tebow due to the type of offense he came out of, his better running ability than throwing ability, and his body size," Morris wrote. "Prescott is a much better runner than he is a passer, and he should consider choosing one or the other to work on. As of now, I see Prescott going in the 6th Round. I don’t see enough instinctive talent as a QB to see him lasting in the league because athletic talent will only last you so long." The analyst criticized Prescott's performance against pressure, the tightness of his spiral, his point of release, his ball placement and his decision making. Precott is a divisive prospect.
